Wayford West - Dunkirk

Trapped in this place
I lost count of the days
Wanna get away, out of here, anyways

The town stares at me
Salty scent of the sea
They will come at me

We await our fate
I heard ´em say it´s too late
Wanna get away, out of here
Away from this place

Sandbags in the streets
The devil follows me
This land was taken from the free

Smoke and nailed up doors
Rounded up at the shore
Fighters in the air
Bodies everywhere

No drop to drink no more
Our bodies soaked and sore
See the ghosts of war
Rising up, high above the shore
The waves are hammering at the walls

Running down the streets, down to the water
All I see is sand and blood and endless blue
One sunny day we´ll see the light at the horizon
Until we´re gone we stand as one
We were born to overcome

We shall fight on the beach
But from the bombs we flee
Driven to the sea by the enemy

Along the mole, all the way
Through the dunes they break
Trying to get away

Where do we go?
Many thousand souls
Escape the bombs to reach the mole
Don´t turn around and go, as the sea breeze blows
I feel the hourglass runs low

Burry me alive to give me shelter
God give us hope, God give us strength to make it through
One sunny day we´ll see the light at the horizon
Until we´re gone we stand as one
We were born to overcome

Don´t turn around and go, as the sea breeze blows
I feel the hourglass runs low

A million boats have set to sea to save us
Leave this hell behind me now, I´m going home
One sunny day we´ll reach the coast at the horizon
Until we´re gone we stand as one
We were born to overcome
